You unconditionally OWN the copyright to all the images you created. 
Upon registration with the Copyright Office
you just gain proof of your copyright.  Without registration if your 
copyright is abused by anyone the case may not go
to court since it's not open-and-shut anymore, and no lawyer will take it.
With the registration the perpetrator will settle with you before you 
know it.
But again, you own the copyright from the moment the image has been created.
